The paradox in the poem "Homework" is presented as (C) 'Though an international clean-up is needed, the solution is not as simple as cleaning laundry'. This is because the author pretends that he is doing laundry with the 'world' but cites many instances or nations that need 'cleaning up', for example: 'I'd wash the Amazon River and clean the oily Carib & Gulf of Mexico' as well as 'Cleanse the Hudson Thames & Neckar'.

Explanation:
The correct answer is C. Kiana peered at her watch. It had been four hours since she and Albert had started hiking the trail, but their destination had not yet appeared. What if they were lost? She hoped Albert couldn't sense her worry.
Explanation:
Excerpt C is the only one that describes the actions of a story by using third-person pronouns such as "she" or "they", which is the main feature in the third-person point of view. This is exemplified in "Kiana peered at her watch" or "She hoped Albert couldn't sense her worry". Moreover, the general narrating style shows the narrator is mainly an observer rather than a participant in the story, which is common in this point of view. Moreover, other excerps use the pronoun "I" and this is only used if the text is written in the first-person point of view rather than the third-person point of view.
Answer:
And, after boasting this way of my tolerance, I come to the admission that it has a limit. Conduct may be founded on the hard rock or the wet marshes but after a certain point I don't care what it's founded on. When I came back from the East last autumn I felt that I wanted the world to be in uniform and at a sort of moral attention forever; I wanted no more riotous excursions with privileged glimpses into the human heart. Only Gatsby, the man who gives his name to this book, was exempt from my reaction—Gatsby who represented everything for which I have an unaffected scorn. If personality is an unbroken series of successful gestures, then there was something gorgeous about him, some heightened sensitivity to the promises of life, as if he were related to one of those intricate machines that register earthquakes ten thousand miles away. This responsiveness had nothing to do with that flabby impressionability which is dignified under the name of the "creative temperament"—it was an extraordinary gift for hope, a romantic readiness such as I have never found in any other person and which it is not likely I shall ever find again. No—Gatsby turned out all right at the end; it is what preyed on Gatsby, what foul dust floated in the wake of his dreams that temporarily closed out my interest in the abortive sorrows and short-winded elations of men.
